Trevor Daley Bio

Consistency has defined Daley's game for more than a decade.

The 5-foot-11, 195-pound offensive defenseman was a second-round pick of the Dallas Stars (No. 43) in the 2002 NHL Draft out of Sault Ste. Marie in the Ontario Hockey League. It didn't take long for Daley to establish himself as a regular in Dallas, where he played 11 seasons and reached the 20-point mark seven times.

Consistency has defined Daley's game for more than a decade.

The 5-foot-11, 195-pound offensive defenseman was a second-round pick of the Dallas Stars (No. 43) in the 2002 NHL Draft out of Sault Ste. Marie in the Ontario Hockey League. It didn't take long for Daley to establish himself as a regular in Dallas, where he played 11 seasons and reached the 20-point mark seven times.

From 2008-15, Daley averaged more than 21 minutes per game as an anchor for the Dallas defense. Though he made his mark as an offensive-minded defenseman early in his career, Daley saw his role increase each season to the point where the Toronto native became a top-tier, two-way defenseman playing in all situations.

Daley's best season with the Stars was 2014-15, when he had 16 goals and 38 points, but he was traded to the Chicago Blackhawks in a deal that sent Patrick Sharp to Dallas.

After playing 29 games with Chicago, Daley was traded to the Pittsburgh Penguins on Dec. 14, 2015. He was a key part of Pittsburgh's second-half resurgence but fractured his ankle in Game 4 of the 2016 Eastern Conference Final against the Tampa Bay Lightning, keeping him out of what would have been his first Stanley Cup Final.

Daley still took part in the on-ice celebration following the Penguins' six-game Final victory against the San Jose Sharks and was the first player to be handed the Cup by captain Sidney Crosby.

In 2016-17, Daley scored 19 points (five goals, 14 assists) in 56 games and played 21 playoff games in the Penguins' run to a second straight championship. As an unrestricted free agent, signed a three-year contract with the Red Wings on July 1, 2017.
